The queen is charming, but powerful ministers lure her to seize power and usurp the throne

"Little Ye Zi took advantage of his unpreparedness and stabbed him in the back of his heart. Unexpectedly, the emperor also wore gold silk armor under his armor. It didn't hurt any vital parts and only broke the flesh." Chong Qing said.

Zhe Sang asked: "Then the emperor is still alive?"

Chong Qing nodded, "The emperor immediately called the imperial doctor and dug out the skin and flesh around the wound. He didn't even faint for long. He even went to court to deal with Xibohou and his party."

"Execute the nine tribes, kill all men and women, and imprison all the officials who usually have contact with Xibohou."

Zhe Sang said: "The Emperor's wrath has left millions of corpses lying dead and blood flowing for thousands of miles. I'm afraid that just killing Xibohou's party won't be enough for him to vent his anger."

Chongqing thought of something, "Li Jianming was also imprisoned. It is said that he had contacts with Concubine Shu."

Zhe Sang was slightly surprised, "When did Concubine Shu fall in love with him?"

Although Zhe Sang's relationship with Concubine Shu was not very good, Concubine Shu's aloofness was genuine and she would definitely not be able to do such a thing.

Chongqing told him about the orchid sachet, but Zhesang still didn't believe it.

As a concubine, Li Jianming was not qualified to see her even before she left the cabinet.

Furthermore, Li Jianming's knowledge was not enough in front of Concubine Shu.

"Unless there are other reasons." Zhe Sang said.

Chongqing: "When Concubine Shu saw Xibohou's body, she just said, 'Under the overturned nest, there are no eggs left intact.' Then she hit her to death. No one expected that she would be like this, and it was too late to stop her. With such a temper, I I also believe that she and Li Jianming are innocent, but since they are dead, if the emperor becomes suspicious, it will be useless for Li Jianming to say anything."

Chongqing didn't arrive either, and when we said goodbye that day, this was the result.

Zhe Sang asked again, "How was it going when Master Gao entered the palace that night?"

Chongqing said, "When Mr. Gao brought his people into the palace, Commander Mo had already killed all our people, and the people from Xibohou's side had also been cleared."

Zhe Sang was surprised, "So fast?"

Chongqing explained, "It is said that the great-grandfather of the Mo family was a famous general with extraordinary bravery. However, his sons failed to live up to expectations and were brave and unintelligent. They gradually fell into decline. As a result, the Mo family was forgotten by everyone. Who knew that another one would appear? Commander Mo, with one against a hundred, killing people is like mowing grass. No matter whether it is the soldiers or our people, they will not be able to withstand two moves in front of him."

Zhe Sang raised his eyebrows, "If you don't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster. Even if Gao Hongli and I cooperate, we may not be able to control him."

Thinking that he had accepted the defeat, Zhe Sang didn't have too many regrets, he just carefully reviewed his shortcomings.

"Has the Northwest Tower been affected?" Chongqing: "Not at all. Mr. Gao came to the palace to rescue him. Seeing his loyalty, the emperor handed over the case of Xibohou's rebellion to Mr. Gao and Commander Mo for investigation. Commander Mo mainly Investigate the spies inside the palace, and Mr. Gao is responsible for outside the palace. All responsibilities have been pushed to Xibohou. Even the death of the empress due to the fire in Yong'an Palace was placed on him."

Unexpectedly, the relationship between Yong'an Palace and Xibohou's rebellion was really close. She thought it would be difficult for her to extract it and she would be suspected to some extent.

Chongqing, "While copying Xibohou's house, I found a letter. It was about how Xibohou and Concubine Shu conspired to frame Yong'an Palace and take advantage of the chaos to seize the throne."

This was not arranged by Zhe Sang. She asked, "Did Mr. Gao go to raid the mansion?"

Chong Qing said, "Yes, but he said the letter was from the Prime Minister. He has no correspondence with Xibohou. Even if he wants to forge it, it won't look like it."

Gao Hong was the final move of Zhisang. Naturally, Gao Hong was not exposed to Xibohou. She had been exchanging letters with Xibohou in person.

"I see."

"Master, what should we do next?" Chongqing asked. The palace coup failed and all the accumulated talents were lost.

Zhe Sang took stock of the cards in his hand. Apart from losing the opportunity to seize the imperial power at close range, several big cards were still in his hand and had not been affected.

"I want to open the Northwest Tower and Xici to various state capitals, and save money to recruit soldiers and buy food and grass in the future. In addition, Xici is small in scale and low in cost. It is best to have one in each county. It is to give charity openly and do it privately. Intelligence point.”

"By the way, next we will follow the Prime Minister to Nanchuan. Along the way, you and Shui Bo can use your money to find out some information when you have time, and recruit some scholars with real talents. Only those who are from poor families or cynical and unfair will not meet them. In the past, they were It would be best if the government and the court felt sorry for him! In addition, people in the countryside who are recognized as having good moral character and high reputation also want him."

Chongqing nodded, suddenly full of energy.

At first she was afraid that her master would be depressed or beaten after hearing these things. Surprisingly, the person in front of him didn't have any of these emotions at all, his expression was calm, and he was still planning his next move in an orderly manner.

Although he was in a strange environment, following Zhe Sang, Chongqing was not afraid at all.

Shui Po came in and said, "The Prime Minister said he was leaving for Fucheng."

"it is good."

Zhe Sang's luggage had already been packed by Gu Heng's people, and several carriages had stopped at the entrance of the inn. Zhe Sang's carriage was not seen when he left the palace, so he must have been disposed of.

"Master! This way, please!" came a loud, dog-legged voice. Changsui stood beside the big carriage at the front, waving exaggeratedly. If he had a tail, he would definitely shake it like a propeller.

Zhe Sang looked over and felt that it looked familiar. Shui Po introduced, "This is Xiao Si who always follows the Prime Minister. His name is Chang Sui." (End of Chapter)
